Chapter Seventy-Eight: Killing Nie Li?
It turned out that after Fu Qiuhong's mother and daughter came to Loulan City with Nie Li, who had a broken arm, she saw her husband's true thoughts.
With Nie Li's person, it is naturally impossible to be a traitor. Knowing husband and wife, they have lived together for half a lifetime, and the two have even reached the point where they have the same mind.
From Nie Li's unruly appearance, Fu Qiuhong, who was in a blue heart, understood very well what her husband was worried about. Breaking an arm, even the strength of the immortals will be greatly reduced, not to mention that Nie Li was still wandering outside the door of the spirit level at that time, although there were almost no opponents in the heads-up, but there were so many masters in the Loulan Palace, it was almost impossible for him to retreat with his whole body.
And once he is captured or killed, it can be expected that the fate of Fu Qiuhong's mother and daughter will definitely be extremely bleak.
Even if he was not sent to prison and tortured, he would definitely be humiliated by the angry Loulan soldiers and civilians.
On the Yilan Continent, the estrangement between the four countries has existed since ancient times, not to mention that Ling Tian and Loulan were originally a pair of enemy countries that would eventually go to war, once the matter was revealed, what they had to face was the tiger and wolf army of the entire Loulan Kingdom.
After knowing her husband's thoughts, Fu Qiuhong instantly understood that she and her daughter had become the heaviest burden in Nie Li, and in the case of knowing that she was going to die, she didn't have to worry about it in order to let her husband go all out. Taking advantage of the fact that An Gui sent someone to summon Nie Li to the banquet and Nie left the hall of the mansion to reply, Fu Qiuhong made up his mind bitterly, first stabbed his daughter who was sleeping on the bed with a dagger, and then committed suicide with the blade of good and evil, leaving only a bloody letter for Nie Li, telling him that he would be waiting for him on Huangquan Road.
No one knew what kind of crazy reaction Nie had when he returned to the room and saw the bloodstained corpses of his wife and daughter and the bloody letter.
Ye Zhen could only roughly guess that it was precisely because of the severe blow of the death of his wife and daughter that Nie Li stepped into the realm of spirit-level power in the process of assassinating An Gui, and then slaughtered all the princes and nobles in the palace in one fell swoop, and disappeared into heaven and earth.
"That's how the whole thing went, husband is so stupid, why did he blame me and Ling'er for the death of himself, this is obviously the fault of the concubine, which caused Xiaofeng and Xiaoyun to misunderstand him for so many years, and I don't know how he came over all these years, husband, the concubine is sorry for you......" Looking into the distance with red and swollen eyes, Fu Qiuhong's tears were about to run dry.
"This ......" After listening to Fu Qiuhong's narration, Ye Zhen was also a little dumbfounded, and he didn't expect that the killing of his wife and daughter, which he had always believed in, was actually just an oolong. Nie Li, that guy, would rather bear this charge of losing his conscience himself, rather than tell the truth of the matter to Feng Xingshan and Yun Punish Evil and others.
"Looks like we're wrong about him." Muttering to himself, Ye Zhen suddenly felt hot on his face, he had subjectively speculated for so long, but it was all nonsense.
"I don't know if my husband is okay now, after the concubine and Ling'er's soul entered the Ghost Gate, I waited for my husband for half a year, but I never saw his soul enter the Ghost Gate. In desperation, the concubine had to let Ling'er go to the other side to reincarnate first, and if she didn't see her husband in person, the concubine would not be able to cross the bridge with peace of mind. Long before the concubine left the cabinet, the husband sent me a love poem, and the last two sentences of the poem are, if anyone dies at the age of ninety-seven, he will have to wait on the bridge for three years. But the concubine waited for twenty years......" Fu Qiuhong said with a blurred eyes, her tone was a little sad and a little desolate, I don't know if she is blaming her husband for not coming to see her for a long time, or lamenting the passage of time and not treating people.
She always thought that if she and her daughter died, then her husband would no longer be able to live alone, so she would always wait on the Nai He Bridge. It's just that no matter how hard she waits, there is no trace of Nie Li. Existing as a ghost state, it is impossible for Fu Qiuhong to leave the ghost gate.
"Childe, if you have the opportunity to meet the concubine's husband, please help me tell me that Qiuhong has been waiting for him on the Nai He Bridge for twenty years, when is he going to meet the concubine."
System: You triggered the quest 'Wait three years on the bridge', please choose whether to accept it or not.
Just when Ye Zhen was still a little distracted, a long-lost system prompt suddenly sounded, it was a task!
Accept!
Without hesitation, Ye Zhen chose to accept the task that had something to do with the Assassin Grandmaster Nie Li, how could he not accept it?
Mission Name: Wait for three years on the bridge.
Mission content: Find Nie Li and let him come to Nai He Bridge to meet Fu Qiuhong.
Duration of the mandate: six months.
Mission Level: S level.
"--It's an S-class mission." After checking the task of Yue Zhi, Ye Zhen suddenly gasped, just with a sentence, how could it be an S-level task with the highest difficulty level?
"Could it be that the mastermind is wrong? It's impossible, there must be something greasy in this-" Thinking about it, Ye Zhen suddenly felt big, so he had to ask Fu Qiuhong stupidly: "Aunt Fu, does Nie have any troubles with his predecessors, can't come to meet you?" ”
Asked suspiciously, Ye Zhen was very incomprehensible, it stands to reason that although Fu Qiuhong was a little impulsive, she didn't want to be a burden to her husband after all, so she did such a stupid thing. If it weren't for the stimulation of her and Ling'er's death, I'm afraid that Nie Li wouldn't have been able to be promoted to the spirit level in that situation, and it stands to reason that Nie Li shouldn't blame her, why hasn't she come to see her all the time.
"The concubine doesn't know, but even if the husband really blames the concubine because of Ling'er, the concubine has no complaints, she has been waiting for twenty years, and the concubine is not afraid to continue waiting, no matter how much the husband avoids me, he will always have the day when he dies, and then his soul will naturally come down to meet me......" Fu Qiuhong whispered, her eyes were full of determination, even after death, she still remembered that she was the daughter-in-law of the Nie family.
"Huh?" However, after hearing her words, a terrible thought suddenly appeared in Ye Zhen's mind, could it be that if he wanted Nie Li to come to Nai He Bridge to meet Fu Qiuhong, he had to be in a ghost state?
It must be known that Ye Zhen can enter the Ghost Gate Pass because players are different from these NPCs, and the Ghost Gate Pass is just a high-level hidden map for players.
However, for NPCs, the Ghost Gate Pass is a real hell, just like the Netherworld in reality for people, not after people die, who can enter?
“…… Is this task for me to kill Nie Li? A terrifying thought suddenly appeared in his mind, and Ye Zhen's heart suddenly became a little numb, just kidding, a spirit-level assassin, even a hundred of him, is not an opponent of others.
As for Fu Qiuhong's statement that he would naturally see each other after he died, Ye Zhen didn't dare to agree, even if he couldn't live forever with a spirit-level power, it would definitely not be a problem to live a healthy life for a hundred or two hundred years.
